Came in for an early lunch on a Monday at 11:30 with my parents. I had seen an old menu with lunch…read morespecials but they don't have it anymore, I guess because of COVID. To start, they give each person 4 different banchan plates - kimchi, seaweed, pickled daikon, and soy bean sprouts. It was nice that we each had our individual set. For food, we decided to each order something different, so we could try a little bit of everything. We had: -Japchae - this was a HUGE portion. But, it was a bit too salty. The flavor was good though. They also jam pack it with lots of veggies and beef. I would recommend it but maybe just ask for less salt, if possible. -Beef bibimbap (hot) - not bad but I've had better -Soon tofu with seafood - this was pretty good but it was pretty hot that day so I wasn't really in the mood for a hot bubbling stew Overall, it wasn't bad. It has a smaller menu than most typical Korean restaurants - but that could be a good thing, if you're an indecisive person. I probably won't be back anytime soon since there are so many Korean restaurants nearby (especially Pal Park) that I need to try first. Tip - there is free street parking

After a long day out, we decided to swing by for dinner and for ~$30 total, this was great value for 2 people. The boneless and regular wings weren't big or meaty but considering the quantity, it's more than enough to get you full. I liked both flavors but leaned more towards the soy garlic. The Sweet Potato Fries were super addicting. The crunchiness on the outside, softness on the inside, and slight sweetness went so well with the wings. I also loved the pickled radish as a palette cleanser. Overall, super satisfying!

Usually good service but this time we felt like the portions were smaller and when we asked about it, the lady made sure we wouldn't waste the food.

I hope they don't make us feel like we are a burden next time the family eats at this establishment.

Recent experience within the last two weeks was absolutely terrible. There was not one other person…read morein the entire restaurant. A lot of the menu was gone and they were not serving sushi. Also, quite a lot of the meats from the bbq were off the menu. There was one server and one host in the entire restaurant. We got no guidance and no information and nobody helped us or removed hot plates or used plates. Whenever we wanted more food, we had to walk to the back to track down the waiter. No one ever came to check on us not one time. I'm guessing this place is going out of business because this was absolutely awful. I'm sad because it used to be a great experience.

The single hostess wasn't necessarily unpleasant but looked rather listless on her phone while we made our orders with her. I got the Jeyook Bokkeum (spicy pork) with purple rice. Can't really complain; it wasn't incredible, but it wasn't bad either. Banchan (side dishes) were decidedly average, however. We ordered the black sesame ice cream but halfway while eating it, we realized it wasn't actually black sesame (or at least didn't taste like it). Disappointing, but not enough to fully ruin the experience. Prices weren't great considering the quality of the food or location, but not prohibitive either. Considering the paucity of Asian food in Middletown, I'll give Seoul Sizzle a pass, but against greater competition, it probably wouldn't have lasted long in NYC.

And our meal came with soup, miyeok guk (traditional Korean seaweed soup).

I really wanted to love this spot - especially with all the amazing reviews, but I was very…read moredisappointed and dissatisfied. I really regret coming here. When we arrived, it was empty so we were seated promptly. As we got the menu and looked at the cocktail section, I asked the server what was in it? It said the name and that was pretty much it - she proceeded to go ask someone and then come back and say soju and flavorings but didn't exactly say what goes in it which was the whole point. She goes and comes back with an answer. I was curious about the second option but didn't even want to ask her, so I asked another server. His attitude was atrocious - he said obviously soju and proceeded to name the potential flavors and at this point I was done. Frankly we should've stood up and left. We finally ordered. Pork bun, seafood fried rice, tteokbokki with additions, and 2 bottles of soju. Pork bun was ok - there's better and it's not worth the price here. Fried rice - it didn't amaze me enough to come back and there weren't enough seafood in it to justify the name. Tteookboki was a sad excuse of a dish where they used frozen rice cakes and barely had any spice or depth. Overall we ordered and paid a good amount, but the prices didn't justify the flavors or quality. Not to mention, I'm eating and look up and i see on the bar they just left a cleaning solution on top like it's one of the drinks. It seems like they cater towards the western palate, but any asians or those who have had real korean food - be aware.

Really made me feel like I was starting things off healthy and can be forgiven for my next dishes. Up next was the bone marrow which was delightful, and the escargot was really delicious. We steamed onward with the sweet and spicy wings which I highly recommend. I could've just eaten plate after plate of those wings. To balance things, we had some sprouts and then rounded things out with the pork belly. As you can probably surmise, we had no space left for dessert. But that just means a second visit! Very minimalistic decor which I appreciated, clean lines. Wonderfully attentive and accommodating staff. Perfect date night spot.

***this was at their other location…read more Even though the venue was small and there's limited seating, the food was so good. Best kimchi I've had in a while as well! The service was consistent, only once did we have to ask for refills for water. Food: we ordered the half and half raw marinated crab, bibimbap, abalone congee and fried oysters. Raw crabs: marinated and seasoned perfectly. We aren't a spicy loving family, but this was perfect amount for us that we could handle the spice. Our lips and mouths burned, but the good tingle, not the fire breathing 911 burn. lol Fried oysters: well battered and fried, nicely aromatic Abalone congee: perfectly textured and the abalone meat and taste was present. This helped offset the spiciness of the crabs. Bibimbap: not your average clay pot type, this was on a plate and with lots of green vegetables. Also delicious! The Bon chon was different and excellent. Variety of different vegetables, pickled and fermented. We enjoyed them all. FYI: there is a small parking lot as well

Ordered three things: 1) marinated crabs, small size (5/5). Always a must-get here. 2) ddukbaegi bulgogi (4.5/5) - Thinly sliced prime marinated beef ribeye casserole with rice cake and glass noodle and mushroom served in a sizzling hot pot. Really flavorful and so good to have on a cold day. 3) ahjae ppyo jjim (4.5/5) - Braised prime beef meat bones in soy reduction with carrots, radish, dates, chestnut, rice cake and glass noodles. We got non-spicy. It came in a HUGE bowl. Definitely meant to be shared with a group. Took leftovers home and it was still yummy the next day mixed with knife-cut noodles I had at home.

Our waitress was nice enough when she took our order, but we never saw her again after that. We sat with empty water glasses until we finally flagged down a busser for refills. Meanwhile, the manager stood at the POS for about 15 minutes doing nothing. If a table clearly looks unhappy, with most of their food untouched, it would go a long way to stop by and ask if everything's okay. As far as I could tell, the only time the manager left his spot was to drop off checks and collect payment. He walked past our table three times while we were obviously done eating (one of us even gave up and went to wait in the car). When he finally brought the checks, he didn't ask if we wanted to box anything up. We had to ask for boxes ourselves, and he just dropped them off and left us to pour our ramen into them. Decent food, but the service made the whole experience frustrating
